At the bottom of this post I link to information about 'reverse osmosis" devices. These filters are my prime choice because they remove chlorine and the fluorides that municipal water suppliers put in the water. Chlorine does serve a purpose to keep the water sanitized till it arrives into homes. However once it arrives at the tap there is a downside to drinking this chemical. It certainly has no health value, that's for sure. Something else few think about... reverse osmosis units nearly eliminate traces of radioactive elements that could be in drinking water.

"Katie Couric discusses whether bottled water is healthier than tap water and also the bottled water regulations with "Tapped" producer and director Stephanie Soechtig and Joe Doss of the International Bottled Water Association." At issue is bottled water even regulated by the FDA?

Buy a water filter and refill a stainless thermos repeatedly over and over again. It sure keeps it a lot cooler then a plastic bottle and over time a lot cheaper too!
Here is a bunch of informational videos about "reverse osmosis" devices.
People complain, what can they do? Well the answer is simple and everyone can do it. Yet many make the choice not to. I enjoy drinking cool water out of a stainless thermos rather then a warm chemical leached plastic bottle, but hey people want to insist otherwise, what can I say?
Besides why waste energy to recycle plastic in the 1st place when there are really cheap and simple alternatives?
